Privacy Policy for Project Lighthouse

Last Updated: July 1, 2025

Welcome to Project Lighthouse. Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information in relation to our website.

1. Information We Collect

Project Lighthouse is an informational website. We do not require you to create an account or provide personally identifiable information like your name or email address to browse our content.

The information we collect is limited to anonymous usage data through standard analytics tools (e.g., Google Analytics). This may include:

  • Log Data: Your browser type, IP address (often anonymized), pages visited, time spent on pages, and other standard statistical data.
  • Cookies: We use cookies to help us understand how our audience uses the site so we can improve it. Cookies are small data files stored on your device. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent.

2. How We Use Your Information

The anonymous data we collect is used solely for the following purposes:

  • To analyze website traffic and user behavior to improve our content and user experience.
  • To understand which conflicts and topics are of most interest to our audience.
  • To maintain the security and functionality of our website.

We will never sell or share this anonymous data with third parties for marketing purposes.

3. Third-Party Links and Donations

Our website contains links to external sites, including reputable news sources and the official websites of major non-governmental organizations (NGOs).

A. Donations to Partner NGOs

When you click a "Donate" link that is clearly designated for an external organization (e.g., Doctors Without Borders, UNHCR, Red Cross), you are taken directly to the secure, official website of that NGO. Project Lighthouse does not process these transactions. We never see, handle, or store any of your personal financial information for donations made to these third-party organizations.

Please be aware that we do not control these third-party websites, and this Privacy Policy does not apply to them. We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any site where you make a donation.

B. Donations to Support Project Lighthouse

You may also have the option to make a donation directly to support the operational costs of Project Lighthouse itself. These donations are handled through a secure, third-party payment processor (e.g., Stripe, PayPal, Buy Me a Coffee).

When you make a donation to Project Lighthouse:

  • Your payment is processed by our trusted third-party partner, not by us directly.
  • We do not see or store your full credit card number or financial details.
  • We may receive basic transaction information from the processor, such as your name, email address, and donation amount, which we use for record-keeping and to send you a thank-you confirmation. This information is handled in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

4. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect the anonymous data collected against loss, theft, and misuse. However, no internet transmission is ever 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

5. Children's Privacy

Our service is intended for a general audience and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect any personally identifiable information from children.

6. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date at the top.
